The ever-enigmatic Winston Tong performed behind a silk gossamer screen/sheet for this set. He was aided by members of The Grave Brothers Deluxe for a few of the songs, a mix of solo efforts and Tuxedomoon classics.
Looks like there's no other photos or videos that can be found online of this, at least. Upon revisiting this performance, this was more electro-sounding than I was expecting, so gives a different spin on these tracks, even if they sound a bit 90s/00s Adi Newton/Clock DVA-y.
Winston Tong (pCloud)
Here's a video from Ear Candle Productions of his performance a couple of years prior, at the Vortex, also performed with LX Rudis on synths.
While I did previously tracksplit the Winston Tong recording, for my own purposes (presumably), the opening acts have sat untracked and under-appreciated for the past 13+ years. Until today.
First up is Mark Matos and Os Beaches. Two of these tracks here were pro-filmed by their label at the time.
Do The Right Thing
Down At The Border
The two photos I took of Os Beaches are included in the link but aren't good enough in quality to want to showcase, but suffice to document they are from the same gig, so are useful for that purpose, as the above video links weren't precisely dated.
Setlist
Hold You Down / Do The Right Thing / Down At The Border / Warrior & The Thief / Take The Light Away.
"Hold You Down" may be previously unreleased.
"Warrior & The Thief" appears on 2009's Words Of The Knife.
The remainder can be heard on 2012's Coyote and the Crosser.
Haven't done anything to this Sonic Studios DSM-6L to Edirol R-09HR recording besides levels and patch up a sonic blemish or two. But doesn't need much because the Sonics are hand-in-glove when it comes to taping at Bottom Of The Hill.
